Shadow Bug and Brain Gu

The giant tree has undergone visible changes. Its leaves have grown fully, from light yellow to dark yellow, then from dark yellow to golden yellow. It is so bright that it cannot be concealed even in the wind and sand. At this point, the giant tree has completely revived. A golden light shield appears from it, spreading rapidly until it reaches the border of the abandoned city, where the light shield slows down.

[Congratulations to contestant Su Yu, you have discovered the golden tree. This is a special item, you will get an additional 3 million health points. At the same time, as the first person to open the 'energy shield', you will get a bonus of 4.52 million health points according to the time, for a total of 7.52 million health points.]

[Additional reward: Try to win the favor of the golden tree ba, there may be a pleasant surprise o.]

The moment the golden tree grew, the system voice sounded in Su Yu's ears.

At the same time, the system announcement spread throughout the abandoned city.

[Earth contestant Su Yu has successfully opened the energy shield, the sandstorm crisis has been resolved, the game continues.]

Mu Zhen and Northfield heard the announcement at the same time. The former paused slightly while flying the sword, while the latter twisted the space where Mu Zhen was without stopping. If Mu Zhen hadn't recovered quickly and dodged in a hurry, half of his body would have been shattered along with the space.

Mu Zhen didn't care. His attention was still on the system announcement just now: "Eh? Your teammate found the energy shield so quickly? He's really capable." His tone was full of regret. If he had known earlier, he would not have let that teammate leave.

There was no way. Since the system had announced it, the matter was a foregone conclusion. There was little point in continuing to fight with Northfield. Mu Zhen didn't stay. He waved his sleeves and three sharp sword energy attacked Northfield, saying: "How about giving you three things and letting me go?" As he said that, he turned into a sword energy and broke through the air.

Northfield was not going to chase and waste time. He raised his hand to collect the three sword energies. After dissolving them, he found three hidden clues inside the sword energies. He was about to discard them, but he remembered Su Yu, paused slightly, and collected the clues again.

...

The system's city-wide notification surprised Su Yu. He gained so many life points, but the system did not announce it. Instead, it hid it and only said such a short sentence dryly. Is this normal ma? This is very abnormal.

Su Yu's doubts were soon answered.

In addition to the protective shield that spread to the entire city, another smaller protective shield unfolded from Su Yu's side. It was completely different from the transparent color of the advanced protective shield. This protective shield was slightly golden, just like the leaves of the golden tree, the source was clear at a glance.

Su Yu was very safe, but Cai Yan, who was blocked outside the double-layer protective shield, was choked with anger. He finally killed some of the jumping bugs, but found that Su Yu had another layer of protective shield on him. From the energy sensing, the golden protective shield was much stronger than the advanced protective shield.

"Can you only shrink in the protective shell ma?" The giant bird asked sarcastically.

Su Yu looked up at the giant bird, but did not answer. He turned his eyes to the Zergs on the ground. The mantises and soldier worker ants suffered the most casualties, and among the medium-level Zerg, the icebone spider and the black water ghost butterfly were the most seriously injured. The former broke several spider legs, and the latter had half of its butterfly wings torn. The rest were in good condition.

After a brief sensing in his mind, he soon received two weak responses. Very good, the black water ghost butterfly and the iron blood vine completed the task he gave perfectly. The shadow bug and the brain gu are now on the giant bird. As long as there is enough time, he can get the desired result.

Shadow bugs, like shadows, are silent and are as shadow following the body. They can control the host they are attached to for a short time. Brain gu are fragile and easy to die. However, if the host fails to find it in time and it successfully parasitizes the brain, the host's consciousness will be gradually assimilated until it is completely controlled by the brain gu.

When the medium-level Zerg was hatched, Su Yu felt that the abilities of these two medium-level Zergs complemented each other and could work together to achieve miraculous results. Shadow bugs can help the brain gu gain more parasitic time, at the same time, it can also allow the host to ignore the strange feeling of being parasitized.

But... do you really want to do this ma? Su Yu's heart flashed a trace of hesitation, but this hesitation soon disappeared. He didn't understand the various hostile behaviors of the giant bird. Was it just because of the mechanical maze? Whether Su Yu understood it or not, he was not prepared and could not let it go. The Interstellar Tournament was a life-and-death struggle. It was better to solve it all at once to avoid possible troubles later.

[It doesn't matter. As long as you want, the brain gu can always break away from the host it is parasitizing and let them recover.] The system said.

Under the influence of the shadow bug and the emotional manipulation of the black water ghost butterfly, the giant bird was completely unaware of his own abnormality. Because of the defense of the medium-level Zerg and the existence of the double-layer protective shield, he was unable to approach Su Yu for a long time. He had become irritable, spread his wings and flew up, hovering over the golden tree.

At this time, a black space crack opened not far from Su Yu, and Northfield walked out of it. He looked up and saw that there were signs of multiple space distortions above the golden tree. This was Northfield's usual attack method.

The giant bird could dodge this kind of attack calmly, but it happened suddenly and he could only dodge hurriedly. The space distortion chased his direction. In the end, the giant bird's left wing was accidentally hit. He lost his balance, fell to the ground and hit the other side of the golden tree.

[It's over! Northfield is back. I declare, the outcome of this game is determined.]

[Young patriarch really... What time to waste just now a! Just focus on fighting a, isn't that good ma?]

[The main thing is that there is no time to fight a. Those bugs aside, Su Yu still has two layers of protective shields. There is not enough time, he cannot break through. It will be the same if Northfield comes later.]

[I don't understand, why Cai Yan is so obsessed with Su Yu a?]

[Of course it's because of shame. The Chalk civilization admires the strong, and Cai Yan is the young patriarch of the Feather Clan, but he was beaten by a contestant from a weak civilization. Although Northfield is responsible, he definitely wants to kill Su Yu to avenge his shame.]

Northfield ignored the falling giant bird and walked towards Su Yu first. After taking a few glances and making sure that Su Yu was not injured, he turned to ask what happened here. Su Yu told the story of the golden tree in a few short sentences. As for Cai Yan, there is no need to mention it.

"I didn't expect it to be this tree." Northfield.

Su Yu nodded: "Let's go find Fenyu Xue and others ba."

According to the agreement when they separated, after the three parties found the clues, they returned to the trading building to discuss the direction of the clues and the division of the life points obtained from the resources. As for now, the situation is slightly different from what they imagined. The clues do not need to be discussed anymore, but the life points obtained can still be discussed on how to divide them.

"Before going to find them, how should we deal with this?" Northfield's eyes cast towards Cai Yan on the other side of the golden tree. Just now, the giant bird turned back to human form. Although the form has changed, the injury still exists. It can be clearly seen that Cai Yan's left arm is slightly twisted.

Su Yu glanced over there and retracted his gaze: "No need to pay attention."

No need to pay attention? Northfield misunderstood something. He frowned rarely and whispered to Su Yu: "You don't need to be soft-hearted in the Interstellar Tournament."

"I know." Su Yu certainly knew this, otherwise he would not have used the shadow bug and brain gu, but he couldn't say it clearly.

Seeing that Su Yu didn't want to talk more, Northfield paused, took out a palm-sized golden scorpion, and naturally changed the subject: "This bug ran fast, I almost didn't catch it."

This golden scorpion was naturally the Golden Water Scorpion. The situation was urgent just now, Su Yu couldn't take the Golden Water Scorpion away. He could only order it to become smaller and drill deep underground first, then come out to find him when it had a chance. Unexpectedly, Northfield brought it back directly, saving a lot of effort.

After being taken from Northfield's palm by Su Yu, the depressed Golden Water Scorpion instantly recovered.

"..." Northfield narrowed his eyes and began to regret why he didn't crush the little bug to death when he found it just now.

Let the Golden Water Scorpion grow bigger, Su Yu and Northfield stood on its back, the Golden Water Scorpion went towards the direction of the Trading Building. Without the sandstorm blocking the way, its speed was even faster than before.

"Can you teleport to the Trading Building ma?" Su Yu asked Northfield, because he remembered the previous teleportation to the giant tree.

Su Yu just asked casually, but Northfield didn't feel casual, his body stiffened slightly, right... he forgot this, how to explain this? And it can't be an ordinary explanation, it has to be reasonable.

"The ability to jump in space requires mental power to build, so I don't use it often." Northfield.

Like this? Su Yu believed it.

[Thinking about the first, second, and third games, this is called not often used? Often rushing on the road, people disappear in a snap, then appear in another place in a snap, not often used?]

[This reason is very good, I can give full marks, but I don't believe this reason.]

[This Lord Northfield is not the Lord Northfield in my memory. I have a terrifying idea. Did someone have a facial modification surgery then disguised it?]

[A word awakened the dreamer! I understand, it's a conspiracy of Earth civilization!]

[The face can be disguised, the spatial ability can be disguised? Strength can be disguised? If they can disguise to this extent, then Earth civilization is really playing a big game.]

The barrage chatted deeply for half a day, and the golden water scorpion came to the trade building. Fenyu Xue's team and Zhang Lingyun's team were both there, with no shortage of people, but half of them were injured, with varying degrees of severity, especially Zhang Lingyun's team, where five of the eight people were injured.

Northfield looked at Lance. With Lance's strength, this shouldn't be the case.

"This has nothing to do with me." Lance frowned and explained: "I was entangled by a team from the Rosa civilization, then they were attacked by another team."

Fenyu Xue added: "The one who attacked them was another team in the building before, it was also your... Earth civilization team." At the end, Fenyu Xue's voice couldn't help but become smaller.

Zhang Lingyun also came over. He smiled bitterly at Su Yu and said only one sentence: "The farmer and the snake."

Su Yu nodded, and did not continue to ask questions on this topic. Instead, he talked about life points: "I have 7.62 million life points and a resource pack."

"How can it be so many?" The number of points shocked the people around him.
